Default help needed for a new EA.easy to make:)I think

guys ,if some of you know how to program a robot, I have a great system.simple and profitable.
anybody wants to give it a try?
basically I bought an incredible indicator that tells you when to buy and when to sell.
now we just need the EA to open orders as soon as the new candle is being formed after the indicator changes color and the EA should close as soon as the indicator changes color again.c'm on it can hardly get any more simple than this.tried it manually on 4 hour chart and it does wonders.made me 40% in one afternoon.
here is the pic attached so you can see how it looks like.
hope to hear from somebody

Hi damodhar.

It is technically possible to read chart indicators from an EA. It's even easier if you have the source code as then you can rip the logic out and place it in the EA directly. The function to do this is

Code:
double iCustom( string symbol, int timeframe, string name, ..., int mode, int shift)
There are some parameters and settings for this command that require some knowledge of the internals of the indicator , it might not be possible to code this without that knowledge.

If it's a commercial indicator , then I'm surprised that there is no EA for it anyway. Have you got a link to the website for this indicator ?

hey damodhar.

is it the SaneFX indicator you are using? the one you bought?
It is exactly the same as the NonLagMA7.1. Exactly the same.
Here is the mq4. Put them together in the same chart and you will see.
Get the Refund from Clickback if you are still in time, this guy stole this idear from
the NonLagMA and is selling it.

And yeah, i'm programming an EA on the NonLagMA, but there are some problems at the moment.
The Icustom gives back the double value and not the collour values. I'm trying to get the collor options out with some globalvariables. it will take some time, maybe next weekend till my ea is finished.

I'll posted it here. For now, here is the NonLagMA7.1 - indicator .

Thanks for that IvoHR

I've coded an EA for this also, but find it laggy. I'm currently checking slope changes when a new bar forms, but am wondering if I need to close a trade when the slope changes real-time. How were you planning to do this?

I've found that it's not too good in a consolidating market, increasing the Filter helps slightly.

Yeah, a consolidating market is truly a problem for this indicator . But if you use multycurrencies, this would be ok than.

i'm using the NonLagMA. There is a section in the code, where the alert is printed, when to put a buy order. Exactly than when a new bar opens, and the trend chaned. It's programmed alil bit strange but its still ok.

i do open a new trade in the direction of the trend and closing the other trade at the same time.

I modified the indicator with these two lines:
(1 is for uptrend, und 2 for downtrend)
Using this global variable for my EA. Ill post the ea here when i finish it,
but at the moment i'm recieving some 4110error not knowing why.
just need to check it.

if ( trend [2]<0 && trend [1]>0 && Volume[0]>1 && !UpTrendAlert)
{
GlobalVariableSet("trend"+Symbol(),1);
Message = " NonLagMA "+Symbol()+" M"+Period()+": Signal for BUY";
if ( AlertMode>0 ) Alert (Message);
UpTrendAlert=true; DownTrendAlert=false;

}

if ( trend [2]>0 && trend [1]<0 && Volume[0]>1 && !DownTrendAlert)
{
GlobalVariableSet("trend"+Symbol(),2);
Message = " NonLagMA "+Symbol()+" M"+Period()+": Signal for SELL";
if ( AlertMode>0 ) Alert (Message);
DownTrendAlert=true; UpTrendAlert=false;

}

thanks Ivo,
I'll test it.yes it is from the sanefx system.the guy John says he made it.but who knows
in forex and war there are no ruleshaha
anyway,the first thing I noticed is that this indicators have different size but maby this doesn't mean anything.
right now 1ka is working hard on this EA,maybe the three of us should work together on this one
p.s.Ivo are you from Croatia or Austria?I'm from cro

I have a Friend who is a professional programmer. If it were something that was interesting then I would have him program it. I would have to know more about the indicator and how it works.

The NonLag indicator uses moving averages to determine the slope. The saneFX uses a different method that may or may not be moving averages. My maths is not quiet good enough to recognize the algorithm that it uses . If someone can confirm that the two indicators produce the same cuve, then I'd prefer to use the NonLag as we have (legitimately?) the code. This can then be used in the EA without needing the indicator .

hi everybody,
and again. They are exactly the same. Using the same method. saneFX is using the same method as NonLag. The reason for the diffrence in size is, that the NonLag is programmed better than the saneFx, having nice Warning and Buying - Alerts.
Again, if you put both of em on the same chart with the same settings (even the settings - options are the same), you will see only one MA, because they are EXACTLY!!!!! the same.
You dont need to believe me, but i'm studying electrical engineering and there i know how to programm things and i know if somethign is the same. But it is your choice.
At the moment i'm working on an EA for this indicator . The problem is, that the EA is no human.
It opens the positions at the right moment, but it closes em to late. After a gain of 300pips, i wouldnt wait for the collor to change. After the first sign of a reversal, i would take my profit .
But till the end of the day, my EA will be on this post.
I'm not prommising, that it is going to work at all.

PS:
damodhar: yeah i'm from croatia but living in austria, studying electrical engineering there. trading since 3 years forex to make money. Testing alot of EAs myself, before detected this site, and now trying to support it.

Btw, i'm also Programming an EA on pure price action.
(eg: downtred -> price signal (hammer, inv. hammer, insidebar) ->riskreward -> take the trade ->
manage trade with pp)
This will take much longer because when this EA is finished, i will sell it for some money with a 3 month Garantuee. Because i'm a student and trully happy for every penny, cent or euro hehe .
